As I notice the leaves starting to change color I'm reminded that Halloween is right around the corner. Halloween is on the top of my list as far as holidays go, it isn't my favorite holiday, but I love to see all the kids running around dressed up as their favorite character or creature. Sometimes if I'm lucky, as I'm walking from door to door with my kids I'll see a few adults dressed up. Seeing the adults dressed up as overgrown fairies and pirates always put a smile on my face. However, I haven't dressed up in years. Its not that I would be embarrassed or even that I feel it's silly, my only reason for not dressing up is my size. I'm not extremely overweight but I do have those awful extra pounds and it's hard to find anything to fit unless I just throw the sheet off of the bed over me and call myself a ghost!

I have looked in all the local stores for plus size Halloween costumes but unless I go back to my "pre-kid" weight I wouldn't be able to put these over my right leg. It's frustrating for plus size people to have to go through the aggravation and embarrassment of looking through isles of clothing only to leave the store empty handed. I mean do people actually believe that because we are plus size that we do not want to look great and have a good time also?

I took a few hours and looked online for plus size Halloween costumes. I came across a few sites that were wonderful while others seemed to think plus size is size nine. I narrowed my search down to my five favorites which are listed below. These sites help us in the plus size world feel sexy, scary, and finally ready for those great Halloween parties!

The Halloween Costume Boutique offers a large selection of plus size costumes for men and women. The costumes vary in sizes and offer many different designs to choose from. You can be sexy, scary, or something from the movies. The website updates daily in order to show accurate availability. Two to six weeks is an average delivery time, however they do over twenty-four hour delivery.

Great resources. I can't believe that in this age where 2's and 4's are no longer the standard size that a woman has to hunt down special stores for her costumes and clothing. All manufacturers should just make everything in all sizes.
